Nice. Love mine, and 40 was easier to find than 9 for awhile at the start of the pandemic. Haven’t checked in awhile, though.

.40 is still easier to find. Even .40 pistols are still selling at far more reasonable prices than the same gun in 9mm right now because so many have bought into the idea that .40 recoil is too harsh; while it is “snappier” than 9mm, .40 is still easy to control.

Yes, but now looking at 1911 .45 I shot it yesterday at the range. Surprisingly, the recoil was not as much as I expected and I had stellar target results.

A good steel framed 1911 is one of my favorite guns to shoot. 1911s point naturally for me and the steel frame makes recoil very soft. I’m looking seriously at purchasing one...probably something like a Springfield Loaded.

45 is a low pressure round. Smooth recoil.

Nice. LE trade ins are a great way to get a good gun at a discounted price.

Interesting that its called a Glock 22 but is chambered in .40. I assumed I was going to see a .22

Glock’s model numbering is unrelated to caliber. The Glock 45, for instance, is a 9mm handgun.

To me, the Glock 45 sounds like a Glock model approved by the 45th President of the USA.
